Actors' Shakespeare Project: A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Delve—if you dare—into a forbidden forest on the outskirts of Athens. Can you escape your father’s tyrannical command? Will you find your secret lover? Could you finally land the leading role? Or might you discover something… darker?

Join the Bard’s most colorful cast of characters as they flit, frolic, and stumble their way through the trees, aided by moonlight and magic. Elliot Norton Award-winning director Maurice Emmanuel Parent’s invigorating new take on A Midsummer Night’s Dream will explore the beauty and romance, but also the sinister underbelly, of one of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies.

Whether you seek to guffaw at the mechanicals, tangle with the love quadrangle, or conjure in the fairy court, this production will enchant long-time Shakespeare lovers and newcomers alike.
